One bucket. Sheepskin mit thing and whatever 5 litre car wash stuff was on offer at Halfords. I've gone thru the whole 'clay bar', 3 coats of polish thing and really didn't notice that much difference for all the extra effort. I give it a polish in Spring and that does me for the next 12 mths. (It's an 'appliance' for me, it gets me from A to B. I can't recall the last time i went out for a drive...just 'for a drive')

I use a hose and sponge about once per month, fewer times in winter. What's the point of spending a Sunday cleaning the car, only for it getting dirty on Monday? The Xcellence 18" wheels are a pain to clean, however, so I would appreciate any info on products that can make this easier.

I've only really used AutoGlym products when JetWashing my car. I have found that they get off most of the crap when you use a mit but dont leave any waxy feel to it so its common to scratching etc. I've just invested in TurtleWax Wash n Wax. Then I use the AutoGlym Magma whilst still slightly wet and then finish is off with AutoGlym Aqua Wax. Then dry off. Leaves a great shine and lasts quite a while.

I used to be that guy that washed his car every single week but the new method I only seem to do it every 3 weeks now due to the wax keeping most of the dirt and grime off.

I feel like a Heathen. I tend to use half a dozen Romanian fella's at £14.99 once ever 2 months

I just wash mine with water then every few months or so i use "Optimum Car Wax" its in a Blue spray bottle and about 25 quid on e-bay, hardly any effort to apply,good shine with UV protection that really does last, and it also does all the plastic trims without marking them
